Peanuts, those tiny little nuts that often find their way into our snack bowls, are not only delicious but also packed with nutrients. Originating from South America, peanuts have become a staple in many cuisines around the world.
Peanuts may be small in size, but their impact is significant. They offer a wealth of nutritional benefits, are incredibly versatile in cooking, and contribute to sustainable farming practices. Whether enjoyed as a snack, incorporated into meals, or savored as creamy peanut butter, peanuts bring flavor and nutrition to the table.

Here's a simple recipe for spicy peanuts using the ingredients below provided:

Ingredients:

• Peanuts (200g)
• Red chili powder (to taste)
• Salt (to taste)
• Vegetable oil (About 2 tsp)

Instructions:

1. Heat a pan over medium heat and fry roast the peanuts for a few minutes until they become slightly golden. Stir continuously to prevent burning. Remove the peanuts from the pan and set them aside.​
2. In the same pan, add a small amount of vegetable oil and heat it over low heat.​
3. Add the roasted peanuts back into the pan and toss them to coat them evenly with the oil.​
4. Sprinkle red chilli powder over the peanuts, starting with a small amount. You can adjust the amount based on your desired level of spiciness. Toss the peanuts to distribute the chilli powder evenly.​
5. Add salt to taste and continue tossing the peanuts to ensure the seasoning is well-distributed.​
6. Cook the peanuts for a few more minutes on low heat, stirring occasionally, until they are nicely coated with the spices and become crisp.​
7. Once the peanuts are cooked to your desired level of crispiness, remove them from the heat and let them cool completely.​
8. Once cooled, transfer the spicy peanuts to a bowl or an airtight container for storage.​

Adjust the amount of red chilli powder and salt according to your personal preference. Enjoy!​
